With a staggering 755,027 units in album sales, Em landed in first place by a landslide — the runner up, BTS, sold 603,307 albums. About half of this number is attributed to last year's Kamikaze album (which was the fourth-bestselling album of the year) while the rest is just from his back catalog!

Em also held his own in the streaming department as well. Behind Drake, Post Malone and XXXTentacion, Eminem had the fourth-highest streaming total of any artist in 2018 at more than 2.5 billion. 760 million of that total came from Kamikaze. Em also ranked at No. 4 on BuzzAngle's list of top artists by total consumption — again behind only Drake, Post Malone and XXXTentacion.
